Red Tape - M.G.Warrier

My View on "Is there any hope for Relief for RBI Retiree's? - ...": 

Here Dr Gopalakrishnan’s words echo the sentiments of a couple of thousands of RBI retirees and their families whose organic links with RBI had been cut due to retirement/death of a serving employee in the early 1990’s or earlier. Majority of them are in their eighties. In one of my personal representations on the subject (NOT AS A BENEFICIARY), I had mentioned to the then Governor Dr Subbarao that making the story of Bank’s handling the pension issue post-1997 public, may affect the reputation of the organisation. It is said, a poem is best enjoyed, if the poet gives expression to one’s feelings exactly in a manner one would have done it, if one had the poet’s vision and ability to express. Dr Gopalakrishnan has written what I would have liked to write, if I had that skill. Hope, this piece pierces through the hard matter which was known in olden days as ‘RED TAPE’!
